This is just sick. I would shit if we had festivals even remotely close to this in America. Yeah BWBK and ProgPower are awesome fests but this is so much bigger and out doors and just fucking amazing. I like every single band on the bill and would shit to attend something like this. One of these years I may just have to bail out to Germany.
